Iran is mining beaches, deploying shoulder-fired missiles, and rushing troops to Kharg Island — the tiny island that handles 90% of its oil exports. The Pentagon is sending 3,000 troops from the 82nd Airborne and two Marine Expeditionary Units. One senator compared it to Iwo Jima. If this island falls, oil could hit $120 a barrel. Gas at $5-6 a gallon. And the oil routes from the entire Persian Gulf — not just Iran's — would be at risk.
